Sony to Expand Spider-Man‘s Universe to TV

Sony has a hot hand with Spider-Man at the moment. The first and most obvious example is their Oscar-winning, game-changing Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. Then there was the box office smash hit Venom, based on the titular antihero and sometime antagonist of Spider-Man. Then there’s Sony’s flagship Spider-Man film series starring Tom Holland, with Far From Home bowing this July 5.

Oscar Isaac Teases Fulfilling end to Skywalker Saga in Star Wars: Episode IX

In the end, there will have been 9 films stretched out over 42-years. What began in 1977 as a moonshot (pun intended) sci-fi space opera by a young George Lucas has become the single biggest film franchise in history. There were few people who ever thought that the trials and tribulations of a young Luke Skywalker and his plucky sister Leia would be the beginning of movie history, but here we are. This December 20,

Idris Elba’s Deadshot in The Suicide Squad to be Darker, More Damaged

You likely already know that Will Smith is out and Idris Elba is in as Deadshot James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad. Smith’s Floyd Lawton/Deadshot was one of the best parts of David Ayer’s 2016 Suicide Squad. Smith had major chemistry with the film’s breakout star —Margot Robbie’s Harley Quinn. Robbie should be reprising her role once she’s done filming Birds of Prey.

Making Wights & White Walkers With Game of Thrones‘ Prosthetics Team

When you think of the beastly creatures in Game of Thrones, the first thought is usually paid to Dany’s trio of dragons. When we analyzed season 8’s trailer, one of the most joyous parts was watching characters react to seeing Drogon and Rhaegal for the first time. (We all know what happened to Dany’s other dragon, Viserion.) Yet when you really think about it,

Nic Cage Goes “Full Cage” in Delightful Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse Video

The Oscar-winning Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse had almost an embarrassment of creative riches. A trio of talented directors. The super team of producer Chris Miller and writer-producer Phil Lord. That revolutionary animation. There was also, of course, that sensational cast. Shameik Moore was your star as Mile Morales, and his adventure as the up-and-coming Spider-Man put him into contact with a multiverse of other web-slingers. There was Jake Johnson’s Peter B.

The First Full-Length Aladdin Trailer Casts a Spell

We’ve seen teasers and TV spots, but now Disney has released the first full-length Aladdin trailer. This is our best look yet at Guy Ritchie’s live-action Aladdin, featuring Will Smith as the Genie and Mena Massoud as the lovable, down-on-his-luck Aladdin. The crucial role of Princess Jasmine is played by the immensely talented Naomi Scott.

There has been a lot of pressure on Ritchie and on Smith especially.

Let’s Discuss Those Delicious Captain Marvel Easter Eggs

You’ve seen Captain Marvel? You’ve read our piece on those post-credits scenes? You’re up to speed on the creative team behind one of Marvel’s best origin stories? You’re hip on how they de-aged Samuel L. Jackson and Clark Gregg? Good, then you’re in the right place. If you haven’t seen the film then obviously do not read any further.

Okay!

This Video of Mad Max: Fury Road Without CGI is Simply Incredible

How good was George Miller‘s Mad Max: Fury Road? So good that his fellow directors often gush over his achievement (more on this below). Fury Road is, simply put, one of the best action films of the century. Miller’s vision of a parched, post-apocalyptic hellscape ruled by lunatics and their monstrous vehicles was a smash hit in every regard. It won an astonishing six Oscars: film editing (Margaret Sixel),

Meet the Creative Team That Helped Captain Marvel Soar

Captain Marvel‘s Carol Danvers (Brie Larson) is a part human part alien superhero who can 100% kick-ass. Seriously. Watch out Thanos. Directors Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck propelled Marvel’s most potent superhero to the big screen this weekend and the results are a critical and commercial smash. Meet the creative team who helped Boden, Fleck and Larson create a Marvel movie unlike any other.

The allegory catapults us to the Kree home planet of Hala where Danvers already touts her powers and is training as a member of Starforce,

Humor, Horror, and Unpredictable Twists: Us Lives Up to the Hype

Us is unlike anything you’ve ever felt before, on every level. It would seem foolish to expect any film to live up to the hype of that gloriously ambiguous trailer – released this past Christmas – much less the fanfare that comes with a long-queuing SXSW opening night premiere. I joined the line just before 1 pm in the afternoon, a full five and a half hours before the film was set to begin.

Dissecting Those Shockingly Revealing Post-Credits Captain Marvel Scenes

This was the weekend of Captain Marvel’s (Brie Larson) glorious debut, and if you’re anything like us, you were more than ready to meet her in all her heroic photon blasting glory. If you aren’t anything like us and wasted your whole weekend away without a single trip to Hala, stop reading now. We’re about to dive into information that is for S.H.I.E.L.D. eyes only – in other words, it’s about to get spoiler-ific. There was a major reveal after the credits rolled,

Early Reactions for Shazam Are Electric

We might all be heading to see Captain Marvel this weekend, but she isn’t the only superhero people are talking about today. Billy Batson is merely a month away from transforming into Shazam and early reactions to the newest member of the DCEU are grade A.

Critics have been tweeting their praise for the teenage superhero as “pure of heart” and “an absolute delight.” With comic movie clashes getting bigger and sometimes scarier,

Amazon’s Lord of the Rings Reveals the Location of the Series

It’s been a hot minute since word got out that a Lord of the Rings series is coming to the small screen, but when exactly this show would take place in J.R.R. Tolkien’s fantasy world has been a mystery to everyone. Amazon started teasing the show’s location on social media channels last month, releasing bits and pieces of an interactive map of Middle-earth to hungry fans. It was widely believed the show would focus on a young Aragorn,

How They De-Aged Samuel L. Jackson & Clark Gregg in Captain Marvel

Almost as proof of Peter Allen’s lyric that “everything old is new again,” the 90’s-set Captain Marvel has fun not only giddily referencing contemporaneous culture, but even retconning the MCU a bit.

It starts with the current incarnation of Captain Marvel—the former Ms. Marvel, Carol Danvers—as played by Brie Larson. Our heroine falls to Earth and lands, in this case, smack dab in a Blockbuster video store.

Samuel L. Jackson Addresses Why He Paged Captain Marvel So Late

Carol Danvers, where have you been all our lives? But, seriously. We could have used you before now. There have been some serious threats to the MCU, but by the time Thanos showed up and started scooping up Infinity Stones, we definitely could have used some backup.

Obviously, the Avengers do great work, but they weren’t enough to stop the baddest alien invader in the universe from destroying half of everything.

The Creepiest Characters in Aquaman Are Getting Their Own Film

Aqua-mania is real. After eclipsing Christopher Nolan’s The Dark Knight Rises as the highest-grossing DC Comics film in history, it’s clear the King of Atlantis is here to stay.

While supporting the Aquaman exhibit at Warner Bros. Studio Tour Hollywood, producer Peter Safran divulged exciting information about The Trench, the scheduled Aquaman spinoff he is working on with director James Wan.

Idris Elba is Joining the Suicide Squad in a Familiar Role

What a time to be an Idris Elba fan – and really, aren’t we all? The Avengers: Infinity War star will be making the leap from one comic universe to another. After news broke earlier this week that Will Smith would not be reprising his role of Deadshot in Suicide Squad, THR has confirmed that Elba will be stepping into the assassin’s shoes.

Smith reportedly has too much on his plate to return for the Suicide Squad sequel,

Watch the Trailer for Mindy Kaling’s Talk Show Laugher Late Night

Here is your first look at Mindy Kaling‘s film Late Night, one of the big hits at this year’s Sundance Film Festival. Amazon quickly scooped it up, and now it’s set for a summer release. Late Night is centered on Kaling’s Molly Patel, an aspiring comedy writer who lands what appears to be a dream job writing for late night television host Katherine Newbury (Emma Thompson). In this world,

The Russo Brothers Share a Tear Jerking Captain America Tribute Video

The fate of Captain America is one of Avengers: Endgame‘s most solemn questions. We’ve known for a long time that Chris Evans is hanging up the vibranium shield after the conclusion to the Russo Brothers two-part epic. The Russo’s themselves have equivocated about this fact, telling us that Evans might not be done with Cap after Endgame. This flies in the face of Evan’s own comments:

“Officially wrapped on Avengers 4,”

Even George R.R. Martin Doesn’t Know How Game of Thrones Ends

Game of Thrones has been a delicate balancing act since the first season. Not because of the political battles that threaten the fragile balance of power or the struggle for life over death. It has been so tricky because the biggest game on television in the 2010s has been born of a book.

Everyone knows that George R.R. Martin’s Song of Ice and Fire series inspired the hit show.
